Mallorca: Stefanos Tsitsipas reached his first tour-level final on the grass court, defeating Frenchman Benjamin Bonzi 6-4, 6-4 in the Mallorca Championships here on Friday.
The Greek demonstrated great footwork to dictate on his aggressive forehand, while he held his nerve in the crucial moments, saving all three break points he faced to advance after one hour and 32 minutes. The second seed, who is making his debut at the ATP 250 event, also defeated Bonzi on the grass in Halle last week before he lost to Australian Nick Kyrgios. With his victory, Tsitsipas has now earned a Tour-leading 39 wins this season and will face Spaniard Roberto Bautista Agut who beat Swiss qualifier Antoine Bellier 7-6 (5), 6-2 in other semifinal.
